Debated and researched the GTX 1060 and RX 480. They both seem neck and neck, but ultimately I chose the 1060 due to it being better with DX11 games, more efficient, there is one available for $260 locally, and the fact that it should still perform well with DX12.
I really just plan on playing 1080p games on ultra.
Questions:
1) What do you all think about this one?... This is the $260 one I was talking about. The build doesn't look great, but I am inexperienced and it probably doesn't matter since it will be in my pc case for 5 years. Or should I wait for something else? (may be awhile)

2) Will it be compatible with the follow... I am really cautious on whether it will work with my mobo and power supply (not sure if it has the connection I need to power the gpu).
MOBO: asrock z77 extreme4

POWER SUPPLY: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001EYV690/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Would really appreciate the help!
